Swear Pig

I started a swear jar. Well, it's a purple pig with a tiara and sparkly tule veil, but it works.
But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation. James 5:12

I got that from my Spring/Summer read, "Boundaries: when to say Yes how to say No to take control of your life"
Some pages reference 3 Bible verses, others more than 15. So, the seemingly simple 16 chapters are going to stretch across two seasons for me. :)
Any way, when Jesus' brother warns, I try to take it to heart; so I'm paying $1 to the oinker princess every time I use an oath.
My Momma and get Grandma Chalfant would be disappointed in me if I were to regress at this stage in life. I love my Momma.
And, l have a vocabulary sufficient to our vernacular. I can express my thoughts and emotions simply, without a default expletive to conceal a lapse in cognition.
I affirm my commitment to, and do not swear to, a clean vocabulary that my Momma would not be tempted to attack with the soap bar...
